I used to own custom ETY's 30 years ago but it's been a while so I consider myself a newbie. Can you guys tell me how long I should be able to comfortably wear my customs before I experience:   A. discomfort B. pain C. the desire to rip my face off

Sorry if this has already been discussed here elsewhere. I'm about to pull the trigger on one of these. Can somebody tell me the basic differences besides the amount of drivers? I use an ipod classic 6th gen and Ray Samuels' Shadow for amplification. Thank you in advance.

First let me start out by saying I love the sound signature of these phones. I find the mildly recessed highs actually help tame the slight digital razz of ALACS and the bottom, while somewhat rolled off, still sounds engaging. Tonight however, I snapped my third pair and I am frankly now...

Ok guys. Here's my sad story. I currently use a tomahawk which I use to power either my Westone W3's, ATH ESW9's, or Grado RS-1's. I like my music "loud" but I rarely find myself turning the volume pot past the "12 0'clock" position for any of my phones. I listen to the AT's and Grado's on the...

I got a bottle of white out and put a white dot on the volume control of the Tomahawk amp. Now I can see my level quickly when I pull my rig out of my pocket.

Help! Ok, here's the facts. My portable rig is the ipod classic with ALAC files, Ray Samuel's tomahawk and most of the times, my RS-1's. This combo blows me away! But when it rains in NYC I don't want to get my Woodies wet and I use a pair of the Audio Technica ATH-M50's. Now don't get me wrong...

Hello from New York City I know not to get my RS-1's wet. The other day my girlfriend and I had a fight because it started to rain and I insisted on using our 1 umbrella to safeguard my babies. But how do the RS-1's respond to the cold of a Big Apple Winter? Am I not supposed to wear them in...

Anybody found a good solution for carrying RS-1's around? Thx.

Some black paint has chipped off one of the cups on my RS-1's. Is it easy to paint it myself? I hate to return them just for this. They're just starting to burn in. Thanks for any help.

http://www.dark-audio.com/liberator/default.htm Wanted to see if anyone had tried this. Just upgraded from SR325i's to RS-1's today and even with no burn-in I don't see how these could possibly be any more amazing

I just found a pair of Grado HP 1000's in my closet from G-d knows how many years ago. I currently using a pair of ALO modded 325i's for my portable rig. Are the HP's worth recupping? Thanks.

Back in the 90's I was a "Linnie". Karik, Numerik, Klouts, Kremlin, and Keltiks. When 2 channel super audio happened I achieved bliss. Through those years I owned many headphones, Grado 100's, Stax Lambda Pro's, Koss Pro 4 AA's, Sennheiser 600's, and just about every Sony ever made. When mp3...
